"You are definitely wealthy, Young Master Zhang. I am impressed," Cyrus nodded at him. "Since you want these materials, I won't compete with you." After saying this, he turned around and revealed a devious smirk. He had obviously done it on purpose!
‘Hmph, let's see how rich you really are,’ Cyrus thought, ruffling his hair as his smirk deepened.
After bidding a high price for those materials, Taurus became the center of attention as discussions buzzed around him. He remained calm and collected, seemingly unfazed.
However, S.K.Y. could tell from slight changes in his expression that he was deeply satisfied. Before this, Guest 250 had received nothing but ridicule for spending 200 million.
Meanwhile, Taurus had spent only a million and managed to show off how cool he was, which was undoubtedly a great deal. The actual value wasn't important. What mattered was that he was happy.
‘I, Taurus Zhang, am born to show off!’ At that moment, he was still intoxicated with the pleasure of showing off.
S.K.Y. felt a twinge of disapproval. He quickly stood up and completed the transaction on stage. Soon enough, he returned to his seat, and the auction continued.
More materials were being auctioned. Still, Cyrus continued to compete with him.
As expected, Taurus successfully purchased all the materials, using his deep pockets and minimal intelligence. By now, Cyrus wore an uneasy expression, his heart filled with envy.
‘How can he be so rich?’ he wondered. Little did he know, Taurus was like a goose with two billion worth of golden eggs. Throwing tens of millions away was nothing to him.
Everyone else couldn't help but be impressed by Taurus as he dominated the auction with his financial prowess. With this level of wealth, he could no longer be described as a wealthy fool. He was a quintessential golden pig!
At that moment, many people felt like sucking up to him and taking a piece of his wealth. Not a chunk of flesh, but a chunk of glittering gold!
"Next, we will auction a quality sword." The auctioneer, eager to empty Taurus' wallet, quickly announced the next item. The higher the price something sold for, the more bonus she would secure.
Unlike others who wanted his money but had no chance, the auctioneer could take it bit by bit.
Upon hearing those words, the staff beside her immediately brought out a bright blue sword. It was a well-crafted weapon, three feet long, with a blade covered in a thin layer of cold air.
This was a water-ice attribute longsword called [Starmist]. Restricted to Level 25 and above, it was Grade: Rare level 8. Yunuen had acquired it by opening an Equipment crate.
Cyrus hesitated at the amount. He was wealthy but lacked liquid capital. Spending too much on the sword would make his future uncomfortable. After some thought, Cyrus decided to back out. Even a small amount of money could defeat a virtuous hero, let alone four million.
Seeing no response, Taurus smirked grimly. ‘Trying to challenge me? You're still too weak,’ he thought.
The auctioneer onstage was also stunned. She never imagined the sword could reach such a high bid. It was truly unbelievable.
‘Could these outsiders be just as the boss said? Big fish who throw away money like it's nothing?’ she wondered.
"Anyone else bidding more than four million?" the auctioneer asked, regaining her composure. There was no response.
Such a price was already highly abnormal. Only an idiot would bid higher.
"Four million going once."
"Four million going twice."
"Four million going thrice."
"So..."
Just as the auctioneer was about to strike the gavel, a jarring voice interrupted.
"Ten million."
Everyone in the room was stunned. They felt like they had just heard something incredible. Yet, their minds couldn't fully process it.
After all, the voice had said ten million! A quality sword for ten million. Anyone with functioning brain cells would find it hard to believe. They would deny it was real. That it was reasonable.
However, what seemed unreasonable was happening.
"If no one else is bidding, I don't mind taking this sword." As everyone struggled to accept reality, the voice spoke again.
